Insulation Plasterboards

 



What is Plasterboard wall Insulation

Plasterboard for thermal insulation differs from normal plasterboard, regular plasterboard is commonly used for building work throughout the home, but only plasterboard specifically meant for thermal wall insulation will most effectively stop heat leaving through each wall in your home. Standard plasterboard does offer some level of wall insulation - it’s low price to purchase, too. You’ll need to use the standard plasterboard in combination with whichever insulation material you choose (rock wool, glass wool, sheep’s wool, and so on).

You may well need to bring an insulation expert into your home to install your standard plasterboard and insulation material combination onto each wall in your home. This is due to the fact that installing standard plasterboard and an insulation material requires significant skill and can be quite a lengthy process.


Why Should You Install Insulated Plasterboards

Are you looking to improve thermal insulation levels in your home? If so, you’ll want to look at the levels of insulation in each wall of the home to see how high the levels of heat are that are escaping through each wall. High levels of heat escaping through each wall will have a direct impact on the price of your home heating bills - if high levels of heat are in fact escaping through each wall in your home, you’ll be pumping more and more heat into the building to no real effect! You can choose to install thermal insulation from the inside or the outside of each wall in the home, with the first option carrying the lower price.



Installing plasterboard insulation from the inside of a wall in the home

Putting in plasterboard to ensure that each wall in your home is insulated is a great way to bring down the price of your heating bills. Did you know that around 25% of heat in the home escapes through one wall or another?
That means you’ll need to add insulation into each wall if you’re improving energy efficiency in your home, to reduce the price of your bills and to protect the environment. Insulating using
 plasterboard insulation from the inside of each wall in the home is the lowest price option for insulation. You would need to select an insulation material of your choice before installing a layer of plasterboard over the top of the insulation material. Insulation material that sits under the plasterboard between the plasterboard sheet and the wall of your home, you can choose from various options. Natural insulation (such as sheep’s wool), mineral insulation (such as glass wool or rock wool), synthetic insulation, heat-reflective insulation or new generation insulation, which uses the latest technology.

  One of the more common complaints about houses with poor build quality is noise transfer, both from outside sources but in particular between the rooms in the house itself. Poor acoustics is something that could, and should, be considered at the design stage of a project. Sound transmission between homes, is a major problem in the UK which requires serious consideration from both architects and builders. Noise nuisance can be a serious cause of stress, and if not remedied it can affect our health and wellbeing as well as influencing everyday life.   What Does Soundproofing Do? To soundproof a home means to lower the intrusion of external noise, while also insulating it so noise cannot escape the space. In many cases acoustic insulation is used to prevent any noise from outside interfering with the residents within. This could be anything from voices, nearby building works or high lev...
